Pronounced Ma hay lee a.

I have being thinking of it for ages, I have decided I really like it after thinking it was a bit too quirky at one point.

Any opinions on it gratefully received thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't been put off so that is a good sign, I really like it.

I can see there will be a bit of a pronunciation split but I think I can live with that. I would definitely go for the Ma hay lia pronunciation.

I met a girl called Tanakaylee and though I live the sound of her name it took me ages to get it right.

Mahalia sounds like sounds, mouth moving, not like a name

I went to high school with one 6 years ago. I think it is a pretty name
